It is showing as sold out now. Good on you however. I put an offer on a house today so I couldn't have purchased one anyway.

I got mine today,overall i like it a lot except the dreads could be better,and painted a little better but besides that issue it is a nice Predator 2 bust.However there was no way I was gonna pay the $290 USD to have this shipped to Canada,used my buddies Blaine,WA address and saved a lot of money ($290 for Canada or $108 for Blaine,WA) I know Sideshow did the best they could,but i will definitely have to reconsider keeping my future Coolprops Aliens busts orders because i cant have everything shipped there

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

We should have got in touch with one-another before the shipping started - that's at least 3 of us from Vancouver got this & we could have split the gas etc.

Did you get dinged for PST/GST crossing the border?

Sorry about the taxes but REALLY pleased you managed to cut down the shipping by $182 USD ($244 CAD).

It (sincerely) makes me feel better knowing not ALL of us got screwed over by FedEx

Way to go!

Thanks HMS,i am so use to the taxes its just the norm like you know yourself in Canada,however it does feel a little better not giving into FedEx and there bogus rates,i use to use them all the time,but now forget it,and i am really getting sick of the nonsense CM and them have going on,so they have become a last resort

Been mulling this one over, I was all set to pass on it but after seeing how well it turned out and knowing they'll probably never be another chance to own one (I'm guessing they'll be a rare thing in the uk) I've finally caved and put my order in. What really swung it for me was seeing it next to the p1 bust, owning that one myself made this an almost compulsory purchase

Really looking forward to ECCs future items. Not very excited for this, Freddy, Jason, or Gizmo even though they are well done.

Direct order? Nearly $400 shipping?
